Dust Collection Solutions for Vocational Schools
Activities such as welding, cutting, grinding and sanding of metal or wood produce toxic substances, which pose a great health risk. In addition to the health risk wood dust and specific metal dusts present potential fire or explosion risks. Designing dust collection systems for wood and metal dusts requires the knowledge NFPA standards specifically written for wood dust, metal dust and explosion protection.
Clean Air Company designes code complaint wood dust collection systems for vocational schools. They require the implementation of spark detection and fire suppression systems to eliminate potential ignition sources. Abort gates and isolation gates prevent explosions from re-entering the building should they occur and are required by code. Metal shops typically work with steel and mostly do welding. The risk of explosion is not a concern but the prevention of fire is. Spark removal is important to protect the filter media from catching fire. Metal dust collection systems will use spark traps and fire
retardent media to prevent fires in the dust collector.
